My inquiry is looking into how the arts manifest in education at primary level.
Findings show: drama is part of Literacy, dance is part of PE and music stands alone as a foundation subject. This has got me question why?
Why does music get its own subject specific lesson in comparison to other art forms? what benefits does music offer that the others don't? Should art subjects be categorised differently?
In a bid to help expand my thinking on this I have outsourced this piece literature:
The importance of music: A national plan for music education
